This would be easy with ssh -D 8000 remotehost. I actually do exactly this every day, but not from a Pi, and with a bunch of -L forwards too.

Configure your browser to use 127.0.0.1:8000 as a socks 5 proxy and voila.

Bonus points for having a proxy.pac file with more advanced proxy configuration logic.

Also check out sshuttle.

It's like in Diamond Age when Nell went to visit her brother later in the book and he spent all day consuming trashy ractives.

Today Apple released macOS 15.2 with ChatGPT integration. I wonder if this has anything to do with the outage.

They don't know about cell based architecture? https://docs.aws.amazon.com/wellarchitected/latest/reducing-scope-of-impact-with-cell-based-architecture/what-is-a-cell-based-architecture.html

I missed a lot if he's already on #3

For most of my life I was not interested in owning a home. Owning meant I couldn't pick up and move or travel when I got the urge, which I did several times. One time while in a foreign country for a stay of undetermined length, I was able to contact an old landlord and secure a place to stay when I learned my return date. How would I have had a place to stay if landlords did not exist?

I guess even as a billionaire, the difference between your first 50 billion and your second 50 billion is that with your second you can make frivolous purchases of social media companies without going back to being poor.

It's still bullshit in the big picture of history.

For what benefit?

I know! Kaiser is my favorite, but they have a very limited coverage area and a few years ago I moved outside of it.

For what benefit?

Why even bother with the doctor? Just ask the insurance company instead.

100% this. If they know what's best for us they should open a hospital.

Do the people making these refusals have medical degrees? Those people without medical degrees actually think they know better than a doctor?

"Necessary" is a really telling word there. Is it necessary that I have pain meds? No. It's possible to go through my life in pain. It would fucking suck, but those pain meds aren't strictly necessary. Just fuck anybody and any corporation who would want you to go through life in pain.

One of my most memorable experiences skating on "no skateboarding allowed" property in Jr. High, where a RAC came up and one of my friends said "Um, excuse me, suck my dick sir." I thought "omg we are fucked" and just ran.

Another time in HS I wasn't even skating, I just had my skateboard with me, and had climbed up onto a wall outside a mall loading dock. I saw the RAC's coming and got worried they'd be dicks like always and ran into a Walgreens in the mall. I thought they weren't following me and I'd kill time, so I stopped to do my blood pressure check at the machine, then went to piss. On my way out an undercover RAC slammed me up against the wall and said into his radio "we got him!" Another RAC came and started patting me down, and when he got to the back of my Alternative Tentacles record company shirt, right where the words "Stop Skate Harassment" were printed, I looked back at him, and he said "yeah I see your shirt." They then said I was a cocaine dealer who had just gone and flushed my stash down the toilet. I was like 16, had never done drugs, and was like "whaaaat? Are you crazy?" They let me go but told me not to come back for 3 months. I worked in that mall though so I ignored them.

Would this be considered artificial selection since humans are the cause of the rising heat that is killing childbearing-aged people who cannot survive it?

Or on skateboards, running from rent-a-cops.

TIL vasectomies turn you gay.

Chelsea Manning

Dang, that's a name I haven't heard in a long time!

The greatest evil is not now done in those sordid "dens of crime" that Dickens loved to paint. It is not done even in concentration camps and labour camps. In those we see its final result. But it is conceived and ordered (moved, seconded, carried, and minuted) in clean, carpeted, warmed, and well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voice.

CS Lewis - Screwtape Letters (preface)

He is another victim of his decisions.

This definitely gave me "Well, well, well, if it isn't the consequences of my own actions" vibes too.
